HAnEAS CORPUS.
Parsons Plea TO Stay Proceed.
ings Denied.

CHICAGO, November 10.-Attorney
Solom N appeared before Judge Tuley
this afternoon and made his applica-
ton for a writ of habeas corpus in be-
half of A. r. Parsons. His points
were that the process was void, the
record saying that the defendant was
present when he was absent. He
claimed that the order of the court di-
recting the execution of the Anarchists
on November 1lth was unconslitu-
tional and void, inasmnch as such
final process must read: "In the
name of the people OF the State of
Illinois," He read many decisions in
support of his point. One of Mr..
Snlomon's main points was, that the
Illinois Supreme Court should have
returned the case to a lower court
where the sentence should have again
been pronounced. The neglect to do
this, he argued, was fatal error. The
writ was refused by Judge Tuley.

bombs were found last Sunday.

that Lingg acted differently from usual.
On Tuesday hight he gave out his
"Fa,ew II Address," which was writ-

In it he recited at length his grew
ances, and closed as follows: Now,
with last and earnest farewell to my
friends and comrades, and with final
wishes for their prosperity, close
with view of certainty that | shall
never have chance of seeing them
